Audemars Piguet's Code 11. 59 is now dipped in diamonds
Two gold self-winding timepieces from Code 11. fifty nine sparkle in the light greater than 1, 000 brilliant-cut gemstones.
Audemars Piguet's Code 11. 59 collection was revealed in 2019, marking the actual brand's first major release in 20 years. As the brand name notes, its unique 41mm situation design consists of 6 versions, 13 reference models as well as 3 in-house movements, " consciously designed with both men and women within mind". Launched in Jan 2022, these two gem-set types feature a case covered inside over 1, 000 brilliant-cut diamonds, explicitly designed for females, and mark a first for your Code 11. 59 selection.
Diamond-paved precious metal case and dial The complex structure from the 41mm case, with its octagonal middle case sandwiched among a thin bezel and a circular caseback, shines in the lighting of 473 brilliant-cut expensive diamonds (approximately 2 . 69 carats). The most notable feature of the case may be the octagonal central container, the nod to the Royal Oak’s iconic octagonal bezel. Through the side, you can see how the flying lugs are hollowed out and also welded to the bezel component. From the stylized lugs, towards the octagonal middle case, for the grooves of the crown, each and every surface is paved along with diamonds. To cater to the various geometries of the case, the gemstones are cut in different dimensions. This can be clearly seen within the lugs as the diamonds heurter in size to follow their curves.
radiant diamond The 18k white or even rose gold dial is set together with 612 brilliant-cut diamonds (approximately 2 . 3 carats), symbolizing sunlight from the center. Nearly like a smoky or obliquity dial, the color becomes much more intense as it reaches the particular perimeter, the center of the diamond jewelry is smaller, and as these people reach the bezel, the scale increases. More specifically, six various stone diameters, ranging from ~0. 65 to ~1. 10mm, were used to create concentric patterns. With a grained establishing, the faceted gemstone is actually held in place by little prongs or beads throughout close proximity, creating a even shiny surface that draws in and reflects light. To improve and magnify the vision of the changing lights around the dial, AP created a contemporary hyperboloid sapphire crystal having an inner dome and up and down curves from 6 o'clock to 12 o'clock.
Both models possess a tone-on-tone bezel with brief, thin black lines which are an extension of the hour indicators on the dial; the white gold or platinum model features a rhodium-colored internal bezel, and the rose gold product features a rose gold-colored viser. Applying white or rose gold colored hour markers and Persia numerals to the dial, one of the diamonds, proved to be a complex procedure. Unlike earlier Code eleven. 59 simple self-winding products, the dial of this view does away with the date windowpane to accentuate the gem-set switch.
satin strap Satin straps look great upon jewellery watches and AP offers an elegant satin calfskin strap for the new Program code 11. 59 in blue-grey in white gold and delicate beige in rose gold. The rare metal folding clasp is also arranged with brilliant-cut diamonds, underlining the feminine character in the watch.
Caliber 4309 The Code 11. 59 jewellery design is powered by AP's in-house calibre 4309, typically the brand's latest automatic motion for hours, minutes and main seconds. The movement, having a diameter of 32 milimetre, ensures excellent timekeeping overall performance and provides a stable power reserve associated with 70 hours. The sky-blue caseback showcases the movement’s Haute Horlogerie decorations, such as Côtes de Genève, satin-brushed, circular graining, circular silk and polished chamfers, in addition to a 22k rose gold oscillating bodyweight exclusive to the collection.
